Michoacan features miles and miles of undeveloped Pacific coastline between Puerto Vallarta and Acapulco, ideal for relaxing and surfing. Top spots include La Ticla, in the northern part of the state and Rivermouth, north of Caleta de Campos.

The picturesque city of Morelia, Michoacan's capital, was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site (www.unesco.org) in 1991 for its magnificent architecture and impressive symmetry found in its plazas, gardens and atriums. As the capital of Michoacan, it is one of the most beautiful colonial cities in America, with a well-earned reputation as a regional cultural center that still preserves its structures constructed between the 16th and 19th centuries.

Patzcuaro is another one of Michoacan's World Heritage sites nestled in a lush forest on the shores of an extraordinary lake. The state is dotted with craftsmen's villages including Morelia, Ucareo, Charo and Cuitzeo.

Nearby islands are also worth a visit for a breathtaking tour of the area's traditions and culture. The Island of Janitzio, the Basílica de Nuestra Señora de la Salud and the Museum of Popular Arts, where you can buy colorful handicrafts made by the Tarascan Indians, are all renowned for their charming beauty.
